Google knows EVERYTHING

MTA Google Subway ads - Google wants top level access to YOU!
It began as a niggling feeling that something was n't right.

Everywhere I went it seemed someone was following me.... who could it be and why would they want to know EVERYTHING about me, am I so important? I saw the name GOOGLE everywhere etched on every store and signpost - brought to me by google ... "who is Google? how do they know who I am and why do they know so much about me?" ... I want my info back I cried vainly of course. Everything is GOOGLE now.
Why Share Everything with GOOGLE? 
Then it started happening - from out of dark alleys and crevices came salesmen of all hues and stripes - opening a coat here - "how about a nice watch? I know Mr wants a nice watch ... 'ear sirr 'ow a bou' a noice piece o' gold for the lady ... how did they even know I had a lady and I was looking for a nice piece of jewelry?
... how about this guitar? it was the very guitar I searched for the other day.
On and on they shouted offer piling on offer til I was sick with surfeit. Do you mean to search for 'Sore Feet' someone asked ever so helpfully, "we are just here to help" they purred...

Whatever I once wished or asked for was now provided, but it was all too much, too knowing, too creepy. From everywhere they came, bearing their over stuffed carpets bags and drowned me in their cries - like my world had turned into a mad over populated middle-east market  bazaar of over friendly trinket salesman. Brought to you by GOOGLE. We know who you are.

As I fell backwards under the feet of the market place hawkers I heard Google cackle - "do not harm, do no harm ..."

Is the use of the word ASS in lyrics explicit?

Image
 This must be just a gratuitous excuse to write some filthy words in LAUGHJOHNLAUGHS! Blog- I was researching this because the words of my first ever single - "Does my bum look big in this? " contains the word ' ass ' in a line in the third verse. "Ohh please tell me baby do you like my ASS?" which is a fair relationship question imo ...but my G/f says in church circles it is likely regarded as lewd or crude .. hmm I  hadn't realized. So here is some interesting material derived from a quick search on the topic - using the search terms ' is the word ass in lyrics considered explicit ' I got some information about the 7 dirty words or seven naughty or filthy words - whatever they may be titled. However if I publish the 7 naughty words in full then I need to mark my blog as explicit which is a shame - so may need to write a tamer version without the highly charged naughty/dirty words. Anyway basically the good news is as follows:  I don

ASCAP 1 day conference Q&A Feedback

ASCAP NY SESSIONS Q&A Name: John Munnelly Band: Laughjohnlaugh Latest album: Unreleased ( Music available on myspace and on my EPK) Website: http://www.myspace. com/laughjohnlaugh EPK: http://www.sonicbids.com/ epk/epk.aspx?epk_id=103702 BLOG: http://laughjohnlaugh. com/ 1. Why did you decide to attend ASCAP NY Sessions? First of all I liked the name - I make music - that's what I do and aspire to better at doing with other musicians similar to me. I wanted to join ASCAP - They seem to me to be more Artist centered ( than perhaps BMI/SESAC etc) so I wanted to meet with some ASCAP staff face to face and get to know them as persons before I finally signed up. I also wanted to try the 1 day conference locally in order to see if the longer 3-day conference out on other coast is a worthwhile investment of my time and resources. 2. What was the most important thing you took away from the one-day conference? Its a very human business after all - I think it gets a bad rap from tim

Fuck you google (YouTube Owner) you fuck.

January 2018 Fuck You 'YouTube' I hate corporate speak. YouTube Letter says in effect 'hey we are keeping even more money for ourselves!' and 'we are doing this for our advertisers! But they dont say that - it's opposite speak. See some excerpts below. Google YouTube are doing this for our advertisers. Last Tuesday they YouTube tell small creators and musicians like me fuck you and your channel. Not that I even ever got any money from them in the first place, but now they move the creator carrot even further away from the donkeys mouth and the stick of iniquity beats on. Follow the money - they are doing it for the adverts. They had the worst rate of royalty on music anyway and it makes no financial difference really cause they keep the money but likely will lose a variety of creative tools like custom thumbnails that brought some ingenuity and creative flair to their standard random thumbs. It means if you are in a stream your thumbnail imag
